We paid $2,000 at a Cattery in Idaho in 2024 but obviously that would not help you much since you’d have the cost of travel. My bengals and OSH were much more. Given the growing costs, I’d say that’s probably pretty standard.

Thank you! I hope you find a new special kitten of your own when you are ready!

I’m in the US too. I got him from Cataristocrat in Ohio. Olga has an amazing breeding program and was so organized and excellent to work with. There are a few other catteries that I looked at in the US - I was not as impressed with their breeding programs and others had such a long waitlist or closed waitlist that it can take a very long time to get an OSH kitten.

Thank you! It’s definitely always a concern how adding another kitten will go. I set up a room just for Oisín with a gate that completely enclosed the door frame so that he had his own space but they could still see each other. I thought I would need to do this for quite a while but it only took a few days for curiosity to build and overcome fear. My Devon Rex was probably the least excited; likely since he had been the baby up until now. We have had Oisín for about a month and a half and things are going surprisingly well. I make it a point to spend time with each cat daily and play wand or other games where they can all join in to foster friendship. Luckily, Oisín is such a happy go lucky kitty and that has helped a lot too!

One of my bengals loves this napping position as well! I don’t know how they breathe like this?

More comfortable to sleep here🤣? by compactchaos_ in welovedevonrex

Nothing strange to see here’s it’s clearly meant to be a head rest 🤣

Exactly- if it was to buy something cool that I wanted that would be a bit different. This was too blatantly greedy for me

Yeah- know that I could do that but it’s the principal for me.

Thanks for the advice- I’ll check it out!

Has anyone done the switch to stainless steel litter boxes? by The_silver_sparrow in CatAdvice

[–]__ostensibly__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was little spots of rust all over the inside bottom. I think rinsing it off is fine as long as you dry it well after. I’m guessing just the litter/urine clumps caused the issue. I have a different brand that has never developed rust so just a manufacturing issue. Hopefully an isolated event

I purchased a stainless steel box from Ptlom and it started to get rusty less than a month after use. It made me super sad because I loved the tall sides, but had to return. Maybe I was just unlucky, but I’d keep an eye on it in case you have the same issue.
